Self-assembly of amino acids on noble metal surfaces : morphological, chemical and electronic control of matter at the nanoscale
Designing novel nanostructures which exploit the self-assembly capabilities of biomolecules yields a promising approach to control matter at the nanoscale. Here, the homochiral molecular self-assemblies of the methionine and tyrosine amino acids on the monocrystalline Ag(111) and Cu(111) surfaces ar...
